The originally clear bottomed lake water suddenly turned scarlet like blood plasma, and there was also a smell like mud at the bottom of the river - that was the smell of blood...
The vast waves of smoke that originally floated on the lake turned into a yellow and ferocious miasma, raging above the bloody water.
The few small fish in the lake turned into white skeletons...
"Ah——" a female nun screamed: "What is going on!"
Some male monks also couldn't accept it: "Isn't this the golden elixir pool? Why is it so bloody and terrifying!"
"Senior, what on earth is going on?"
Everyone looked at the doomsday-like scene around them in horror, unable to accept it.
The white-haired old man smiled at everyone, showed his white teeth, and transformed into a green-skinned monster with fangs, saying: "This is how the Golden Pill Pool was originally, little kids..."
"Otherwise, do you really think that the Golden Elixir Pool is for you to take a bath? How can it be so easy to break through in cultivation and find opportunities?"
"This golden elixir pool was originally refined from the corpses of massive golden elixir monks who died in the war..."
The old man's strange voice echoed in the minds of all the trialists. Coupled with the desperate hell scene around them, almost all the trialists were shaken to their core.
There was a buzz in Li Qingyun's mind, as if he had been hit by something heavy: "War? What war? Where is the war? So many golden elixir monks died?"
But Li Qingyun and other trialists didn't have to wait long to think about it.
"Quack, quack, quack..." The old man's proud and sinister laughter rang out: "This is an illusion, I'm lying to you, little babies!"
"If you are so unafraid, your character will not be good in the future."
He waved his hand, and the original hell scene disappeared... The quiet lake was still in front of everyone's eyes.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that this scene was not true.
Li Qingyun's face was still heavy. He suddenly felt that the scene just now seemed to be the original appearance of this place, and the pleasant scenery now seemed like an illusion...
"Did you really lie to us?" Li Qingyun murmured.
Like Li Qingyun, Hunyuan Zhenren, Ren Zai, and Sun Tianyuan all fell into silence at this time. It was obvious that they did not believe the old man's words, and the scene just now clearly left a deep impression on them.
…
"Well, this group of disciples is not bad. When we looked at the original appearance of the Golden Pill Pond, there were a few good ones who were not frightened." An elder said with satisfaction.
"Boy Hunyuan and Sun Tianyuan seem to know something, so they didn't seem to be afraid just now." An elder praised.
Palace Master Ren stroked his beard: "Well, that's right. The person who smuggled in showed a suspicious look just now. He obviously had doubts about this illusion just now."
"But Palace Master Ren... is it really useful to let these juniors know this in advance? Will it not make them lose their enterprising spirit?"
Palace Master Ren said: "What's the matter? A truly strong person will never stop making progress. If they lose their fighting spirit because of fear, it means they are not worthy of being called a strong person."
"Besides..." Palace Master Ren lowered his voice: "Besides, that place has become more and more restless recently. I don't know how long it can last. If it cannot be solved within a thousand years, we are prepared to face that year in the sea of ghosts again.
The situation..."
After Palace Master Ren finished speaking, the entire secret room fell into silence, including the old man from the outer sect in dark green robes.
…
Li Qingyun was convinced that he had definitely seen the hellish horror scene just now somewhere, and he had definitely felt this kind of aura before.
But for a moment I couldn’t remember where I had seen it.
"Get ready to go in, everyone." The white-haired old man returned to his kind-hearted look. It is unimaginable that just now this kind old man turned into a green-faced and fanged monster.
"Yes." everyone replied.
Everyone looked excited, they were finally about to enter the coveted golden elixir pool, which was the top auxiliary elixir formation treasure land in the world of practice!
A door of light appears in front of everyone, and when you step into the door, you will enter the first area of the Golden Elixir Pond.
Everyone entered the light gate, but before entering the light gate, without exception, everyone took a deep breath, because... the next third stage is the period of time that truly determines his future destiny.
Li Qingyun's eyes flashed, and he passed through the light gate and entered the lake, but he did not enter it because his purpose was not the first area.
The first area only has 10% effect on the middle-grade Six-Aperture Golden Pill.
He walked forward, accompanied by Ren Rong and Cun Jingye, and passed the barrier between the first and second areas.
Ren Ren said: "It cost more than one hundred to pass through this barrier to avoid the Qi Pill. Moreover, only 80% of the people with us entered the second area, which means that 20% of the people in the first area were left."
Li Qingyun entered the third area without saying a word.
Ren Ruan said: "This time I consumed five hundred Qi-avoiding Pills, which reduced the number of people by two."
Entering the fourth area, the number of people dropped sharply again, this time almost 99% less people, because entering the fourth area requires 5,000 Qi Avoidance Pills.
Because the third area has a high probability of assisting high-grade golden elixirs, and even has a slight success rate for purple elixirs.
Therefore, these people choose not to enter the fourth area and stay in the third area.
There are only dozens of people entering the fourth area. Although the fourth area claims that it has a 20% chance of assisting the purple pill, no one has formed a purple pill in the fourth area over the years.
The purple pills in history all appeared after the Sixth District.
Li Qingyun moved forward again, entered the fifth area, and said casually: "This time, ten thousand Qi Avoidance Pills were consumed, and there are only a dozen people left."
"We know most of these dozen people, hehe! They are not far from us..."
"No! They are approaching us!" Ren Rong suddenly turned big-faced and exclaimed to Li Qingyun.
"I'll stay to deal with them. You take the three of them and go to the Sixth District!" Li Qingyun said decisively.
Ren Ren said: "They obviously came for me."
Li Qingyun said: "Coming for you? The top fifteen or eleven on the foundation list?"
Ren Ren said harshly: "What's the matter? My brother was hunted down by hundreds of people."
Li Qingyun understood the meaning of letting go. He wanted to take care of things with him, but the current situation was not suitable, so he could only let him take the three people away first.
"Let's go quickly, don't stop me from taking action here." Li Qingyun said.
Seeing Li Qingyun's insistence, Ren Ren was silent for a moment and said: "Then be careful, if you can't beat him, just run away."
After saying that, he quickly fled with Cun Jingye and the others, leaving only Li Qingyun alone to face the enemy behind him.
Soon, Sun Tianyuan's annoying voice came over: "Don't worry, it doesn't matter if he leaves first. We will deal with him after we deal with you, and it will be the same."
Following this voice, seven people from Li Tianyun's Moyuan Palace, three from Silver Moon Palace, plus Zheng Yuan, eleven people among the top fifteen on the foundation list, stood in the air in front of Li Qingyun.
A rare awkward smile appeared on Sun Tianyuan's dead fish face, but this smile only lasted for a moment and then suddenly solidified.
Li Qingyun looked at Sun Tianyuan's disgusting dead fish face and uttered: "Yes, it doesn't matter if he leaves first. It's the same thing to go find him after you have been dealt with."
